While we are grateful for all the rain we are receiving, it will require as much as 9 inches more precipitation for most of Ohio to end drought conditions over the coming month.
This means that even when the precipitation we are currently experiencing ends, fuels will likely dry out quickly and still pose a risk for potential wildfires. Please continue to exercise caution when dealing with anything fire-related and be sure to follow any state or local restrictions.
